Spring Chicken

I can't believe Easter is only a week away, can you? I have a ton of Easter/Spring cards to show you that I will be posting throughout the week. I made them all from one set and one paper pad. The set is by Penny Black and is called 'Garden Friends', and the paper is from Prima 'Annalee'.

I stamped a 'Spring is Here!' sentiment on all the cards because I wasn't sure if I would be sending Easter cards out this year since I'm so busy right now attending concerts, musicals, and recitals. If I use a spring-themed sentiment, then I have a larger window in which I can use the cards. I can also stamp 'Happy Birthday' on the inside to send to those who have spring birthdays.

This card I sent to my son as part of his Easter Basket. Yes, he's in his twenties, but I still send him an Easter Basket when he is away at college.

I used a Spellbinder's Nestability Die to make the cute round butterfly background. Stickles were added to the egg for extra sparkle, and I put a few paper flowers and a bow around the image for extra 'oomph'. The lady bug was just an extra little stamp included in the set. The grass is a unknown stamp from my stash.
